Working with Primary school In this period of the school year, students have been studying Picasso.While studying Picasso the children discovered an incredible artist who created in many different styles.They really liked his "Blue" and "Rose Periods" That's why they made two pictures, one in warm colors and one in cool colors.They discovered that Picasso had done a lot of pictures with faces, so they studied the human face and its proportions, from the side and from the front, and then colored their works with chalks. They cut out the profile and pasted it on the face, seen from the front.In pairs, they made some portraits by tearing up little pieces of paper, recalling Picasso’s collages-
